Jessie says her mother died when she was young. She was always sickly and
Jessie had to cook for the family and had to stand on a stool while she
cooked. (Jessie was very short). We know that Rebecca sold a piece of
property in Fisher Co., TX on 1/15/1898 and is named on the 1900 census
so her date of death was after that.
The 1900 census record shows that 17 children had been born with 7
children living. 4 children are still living at home on this census. The
children listed on the 1900 Census at home are Irvin age 20, Richard, age
18, William age 17 and Jessie daughter age 15. Another Son, Gus 22, is
married and living nearby on the 1900 census.
